Hi;
There is a patch series available at http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/alps-touchpad/psmouse-alps-0.10/ I _tested_ this on top of openSUSE kernel-desktop and they fix touchpad detection on Dell Latitude E6520 laptop.
The patch series for Elantech v3/v4 support is seperate and I'll send them after the reporter test my kernel build.
This would be really nice to have in 12.1 kernel.
Ping please? This fixes a lot of new laptops' touchpads.
Are those patches in mainline? If not, they are unlikely to be added to the openSUSE kernel.
Its submitted to upstream and all patches except one is ACK-ed. I don't understand the reasoning for not including this patchset. It fixes a _lot_ of notebooks which is very important for the 12.1 release.
I'm waiting for a patch that blacklists acer-wmi on Thinkpad E520 boxes. When it loads, it places an rfkill soft block and kills wireless. Once it hits the 3.2 merge, then I ping GregKH and this list.
In my case waiting for 3.2 means missing 12.1 release and thats very bad. We need to support something as basic as a touchpad out of the box.
AFAIK, GregKH is quite strict in not including something that has not been merged with mainline. Do you have commit numbers? If so, send them to him. Larry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
